Unfortunately that was an early Fathers Day gift and now at fathers, so I can’t show the exact configuration .</p>
<p dir="auto">But for instance, the below gives you shadows and radiused corners. I just copied from the CSS on <a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/piranha1605" aria-label="Profile: Piranha1605">@<bdi>Piranha1605</bdi></a> Black Boxes example and dropped it in my custom.css file.<br />
Just delete modules you don’t have, add ones you do have.<br />
For me that meant deleting newsfeed, compliments and both the weatherforecast and currentweather since the weather module takes place of current and forecast.</p>
<p dir="auto">/**</p>
<ul>
<li>module.color_border_shadow<br />
*/<br />
.module.clock,<br />
.module.calendar,<br />
.module.newsfeed,<br />
.module.weatherforecast,<br />
.module.currentweather,<br />
.module.compliments {<br />
padding:8px;<br />
border-radius: 10px;<br />
box-shadow: 0 2em 6em #000;<br />
background: transparent;<br />
}</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">So mine is:<br />
module.clock<br />
module.calendar<br />
module.weather<br />
module.MMM-SmartWebDisplay {<br />
padding:8px;<br />
border-radius: 15px;<br />
box-shadow: 0 2em 6em #000;<br />
background: transparent;<br />
}</p>
<p dir="auto">The iFrame was a roll of dice on my part but it worked with no problems</p>
<p dir="auto">I increased border-radius:  to 15px (I think) but may be 12px and got more of a radius than in the original example.</p>
<p dir="auto">I copy/pasted his header from the #3 example neomorphism to get the headers on the weather and calendar to get shadowed look. Clock has no header so no effect.</p>

I just finished a 24" MM. Even so, I just pulled the 7" raspi screen outta storage and will see what I can learn. Thanks!</p>

Located in Custom CSS here–&gt;  css-experiments-for-newbies<br />
Modules are default weather and clock modules.  Radar is an  iFrame module, MMM-SmartWebDisplay courtesy <a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/agp42" aria-label="Profile: AgP42">@<bdi>AgP42</bdi></a><br />
Deleted a bunch of the preloaded modules in  a fresh MM2 install as it is a jumbled up mess with stuff piled on top of each other with default sizes that won’t work on 7" Pi screen.<br />
After doing what amounted to copy/paste of sections of CSS in either dark or light theme ( don’t recall which but they are approx. same other than color) then started swapping out color codes  to see what was appealing to me.  Pulling up a hex color picker site will provide hex codes to experiment with.<br />
Biggest challenge was having to adjust font sizes, padding, height x width of iFrame primarily to get everything to fit.<br />
Some folks not a fan of VNC that comes with Pi OS but I find it invaluable when  working on GUI stuff like this.</p>

Now that I see your MM, I’m thinking I’ll put another together on the spare 7" display I’ve got.</p>
